    Areas affected...Parts of Arkansas into far southeastern Oklahoma

    Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 95...96...

    Valid 040958Z - 041100Z

    The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 95, 96
    continues.

    SUMMARY...Strong to locally damaging gusts remain possible. A
    downstream watch is not expected.

    DISCUSSION...A line of thunderstorms tracking eastward along a cold front/large-scale outflow boundary in AR and far southeastern OK has
    decreased in intensity over the last hour as it moves eastward into
    weaker surface-based buoyancy and limited large-scale forcing for
    ascent. Nevertheless, the established cold pool and 40-kt flow in
    the lowest 1 km AGL (per LZK VWP) will still support strong to
    locally damaging gusts, given weakly unstable surface-based inflow.
    Current expectation is for a continued weakening trend with eastward
    extent, and a downstream watch is not expected.
